Jonathan Day 52

Monday:  I think I'm back on track with my posts now.

Last night we stayed at Rick's parents and slept in the living room on an air mattress.  We did the same thing the first night JH was with us but this time he slept on the sofa and we took the floor.  Last time we were worried that he would be frightened so Da Da slept with him while I stayed up all night long looking down at him roll all over the bed.  I remember 52 days ago moving him from the bottom of the air mattress back up to the top to lay him next to his Da Da because he was/is such a wiggle worm.  Last night he laid there on the sofa blowing kisses and giggling for about 30 minutes.  I finally reached up, took his hand,  and asked who he was blowing kisses at and he took my arm and said "Da Da and Daddy".

We woke up very early and hit the road to take JH to his Dr appointment and to see our Livingston County attorney.  Both went really well.  JH needed three shots and while Sherry held him I was behind her holding his hands and kissing his forehead.  It's an amazing thing being a Daddy!  We went back to Sherry's after and JH got to play with his cousin Dominick for about 30 minutes.  Back in the car and off to MI.  Ugh!  We spent at least 8 hours in the car today and it was too much for all of us.  Jonathan was really good and that DVD player saved us all.

We're home now and we have gramma V with us and JH went to bed about an hour ago.  Gramma just peeked in and stood there for a few minutes looking at him :-)  After she closed the door she said "he is so damn cute all I want to do is go in there and pinch his cheeks".  There is so much love in this family!!

This is going to be a great week having gramma here and we're looking forward to having more visitors.  JH needs to spend time with all the amazing people that are in our lives!!
